Makailah is constantly swarming the ball on defensive end of the court. She plays every possession like it’s her last one. Davis moves well without the ball around the floor. Makailah takes a lot of pride in diving on the floor or taking a charge.

One has to be loving this list if they are fans or affiliated with Team Curry given it is where Davis also plays her travel basketball. At times it appears she can be wherever the ball is as a defender with an attitude for diving after 50-50 balls and corralling steals. Davis can hit a fair amount of open jump shots and is versatile where she can play either the one, two or three. She will spend time as a wing and ensure her teammates are always involved in the flow of a game. Davis played an integral role in the Copperheads run to the 4A Upper State Finals and previously played at Comenius.
